My DELL laptop won't power on, even with the charger.
When i plug the charger in, the optical drive's LED flashes and by pressing the door button, it opens, but EVERYTHING else is not responding, no fan noise, no other LEDs, nothing on the screen. What could cause this?

UPDATE:
I replaced the CMOS battery, but now it won't surpass the DELL screen.

Hey guys! Thanks for the quick replies, but i got it working! The bios was confused because of the CMOS battery change. I forcefully booted into UEFI and when Windows loaded, it changed the time automatically and afterwards everything went smoothly.
Carry on!
